I think ballet flats are for anyone who wants style, comfort, and a little bit of cuteness. With shorts, skinny jeans, or tights. It all works if you're having fun. Don't put yourself into a fashion box. Live and take risks. It's very freeing. I love my flats and I'm over 50.Hi Kristin,

Omiru.com: Style for AllTue, 03 Apr 2007 06:40:50 +0000http://omiru.com/?p=1263#comment-59245[...] We asked: Are Minidresses In or Out?You said: Overwhelmingly, In–with a 70% majority.Omiru’s take: Dresses (and Ballet Flats) are the IT Items for Spring–so your enthusiasm over minidresses isn’t a huge surprise. For those of you who can pull off the mini length, there’s nothing more refreshing than pairing the dress with a pair of kitten heels or cute flats. (Style Tip: Higher heels and a minidress can be overkill.) But the rest of us don’t have to miss out on this trend. Try wearing your minidress with a pair of tights (Style Tip: Darker tights visually slim your legs.)–or even a pair of pants. Next Question: Back in April 2006, we asked you what you thought of Skinny Jeans (you said In, but barely). Now, a year later, we’re asking you again. Tell us, are Skinny Jeans In, or are they Out?

TrishaThu, 29 Mar 2007 22:06:27 +0000http://omiru.com/?p=1263#comment-57541Hi Kristin,
Thanks for the Omiru love! Here's three suggestions for sophisticated adult flats:
Me Too "Niomi" Flat | $78.95 at Nordstrom
http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2911490/
The square buckle is all business.
BCBGirls "Cree" Flat | $88.95 at Nordstrom
http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2920126/
The moc-toe makes this flat less girly, and we love the buckle detailing on the toe box.
Bruno Magli "Florita" Flat | $285 at Nordstrom
http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2917746/
Clean lines and a hint of ethnic style make this flat a standout.
Hope that helps, Kristin!
Cheers,
TrishaHi Kristin,

KristinThu, 29 Mar 2007 15:59:33 +0000http://omiru.com/?p=1263#comment-57491I always think that flats look cute on other people. I however feel like I am ten in them. I am in my thirties. Round toes make my feet look huge and my chunky legs look even chunkier. Any suggestions on sofisticated adult flats? I may convert.
PS. I love this site! Especially since you show affordable suggestions like Target etc.I always think that flats look cute on other people. I however feel like I am ten in them. I am in my thirties.
